PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's order denying
his motion for relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (1988), as amended by
Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub. L. No.
104-132, 110 Stat. 1217.* We have reviewed the record and the mag-
istrate judge's opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. United States v.
Hyden, Nos. CR-90-39-B; CA-94-597-R (W.D. Va. Feb. 26, 1996). We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
*
The parties consented to the magistrate judge's jurisdiction
under 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(c) (West 1993).
